If students aspire to craft immersive games and interactive experiences, the BS in Game Development is the ideal program for their career ambitions. This curriculum seamlessly integrates skills and methodologies from computer science, art, design, and storytelling, empowering students to evolve into a well-rounded game developer equipped with a coveted skill set that is in high demand.
Students build their portfolio before graduation! Students immerse themselves in Pace's intensely project-based program, where they'll craft captivating games spanning diverse genres and styles. They’ll apply what they’re learning to real, playable games and have a body of work to share during future job interviews.
Students start coding immediately using different programming languages to enable them to create various game mechanics and behaviors. They'll learn what tools are the best fit for different outcomes, helping them solve design problems and achieve their vision.
Students make a name for themselves—and their work. One major goal of the BS in Game Development program is to have students publish a game in an app store, learning about monetization and how to work cohesively as part of a development team.
Pace’s Seidenberg School offers a ready-made, passionate community of game enthusiasts—and they're not just talking about students. Professors and Seidenberg staff will be just as likely to talk students ear off about games and what they're currently playing.
On top of being part of a vibrant and friendly community, there are numerous events designed to enhance students portfolio and skills. Join GameJams to create small, theme-based games and then play it with friends. Join Pace’s Esports program and play competitively. Plus, if students want to host their own events, Pace can help them do that, too.
Students will also have the chance to expand their network by connecting with fellow game designers and professionals actively engaged in the industry. The Seidenberg network regularly features guest speakers on campus, ranging from experienced game developers to industry experts. Moreover, students have the option to request specific speakers, providing them with invaluable opportunities to meet and learn from influential figures in the field. It's not just about the coursework; it's about immersing oneself in a community that is dedicated to fostering real-world connections and professional growth.
